Why do we bother?(never give up)

It's a short sharp introduction of pain, that I can sort of control by exposure, and thus allows me to alleviate the rest of my life by comparison.

This message was brought to you be 'living in denial'.

My gobshite (bestman) has just messaged me from Milan with his son celebrating and taking the pisss(banter I accept it)
Always have and Always will defend Everton but I'm struggling to explain to my nephew who's my gobshhhhites sons mate(both 8 years old) why he should stay an Evertonian and not go to the dark side....which I really think he's considering.....
Help me blues...
All comments accepted....even one's I won't like lol

he’s not your best man surely he’s not

 

[matty1878]

You can't check out...you never can and you never will.

until death do us part

never talk someone out of leaving. If they are really a blue they can't quit

He was at my wedding mate....known him since I was 4 years old....Everton were league champions then.....he still says I gave him grief then and in 1987 haha....
My sister is also a red gobshhhhhh.....
Still love her though lol.

Football as an open competition is long gone. From now on there will only ever be winners from the Sky 6 (although i'm probably giving Spurs too much credit and I don't think we'll see a repeat of the Leicester season). I would advise anyone not to engage in top level footy at all - go and support your local non-league team, you can pay at the door, it doesn't cost 50 quid or more, and it's a level playing field. If you absolutely have to support a premier league team then, sadly, you'd best pick one of the 6 (5?)

when i was over there my mate took me to a crewe Alexandria match and I LOVED it!

 

[TrueBlue1978]

Anyone can latch into a successful team and then say look at me I'm better than you because my team is better than yours, but it takes someone with an IQ of over 10 to realise that it is absolutely pathetic to do so.

I agree.
It was me one time....I stayed loyal....he will too I hope....
Although I did support Tranmerre for one week after we lost to Oldham in the FA Cup in the early 90s lol!

 

[TrueBlue1978]

Where they celebrating Saturday?

If he wants to tell everyone in the playground he supports a winning team let him.

It’s easy to be a Liverpool / Man U and now Man City fan isn’t it? It doesn’t show any character though. He may as well choose Celtic if he just wants to brag about supporting a winning team.

I agree haha....
He's a Ronaldo fan more than anything atm...which grates on me also!

 

[TrueBlue1978]

Because we are Everton.

Who wants to support a predictably reliable and safe team? Who wants 6th place mediocrity?

It's far more exciting to flirt with relegation every season.
Champion, it's the performance that counts not the result. And then realise that we're getting neither.
Anyway, my house is already various shades of blue and it would be far too costly to change it.

Love this!

Just say what my da said to me. “If you start supporting the other lot I will drown you in the bath”!

We have had misery most of our lives, why let them get away with it, the little snowflakes! Its character building

Love it hahaha!

Snowflake tw@@@@s lmao!

Because he doesn't want to be a little see you next Tuesday.

 

[Bkk Andy]

I wouldn't bother trying to force him. It's a genuinely miserable experience being an Everton fan. Let him support players. The game is great, the emotional investment isn't.

I tried to force my Son but he's not interested. He plays basketball regularly and doesn't have much interest in his "team" there either. My niece chose Everton herself but told me not to buy her a top this season as she doesn't play anymore. She plays every week...

As long as they're happy.

Feels worse because one side were winning in Milan and the other losing at home in the league cup but its not always that way.

Er, it pretty much is always like that (albeit that we don't lose many games in the cups, just two a season - but we tend to get them done nice and early)
